National Student Exchange

The National Student Exchange (NSE) facilitates the exchange of students between universities in the United States, Canada, Guam, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Like going on a study abroad program, you're able to study for a semester or academic year at one of the 200 participating universities. With options in every U.S. state and beyond, NSE offers you the opportunity to explore a different academic and social experience as a college student.
